Virtue Handmade Damascus Hunting Knife, 10.25” Overall, 6.0” Trailing Point Blade, Exotic Rosewood Handle, Hand-Carved Spine, Full Tang, Hand-Stitched Leather Sheath, Pro Knife Sharpening & Personalized Engraving
Damascus Steel and Blade Detail
The blade is hand forged from 1095 and 15N20 steel through repeated layering, forge-welding, hammering, and finishing. This process creates the distinctive Damascus pattern across the blade, giving every knife its own individual appearance.
Because the pattern develops naturally during forging and finishing, no two blades are exactly alike. Each knife carries its own unique visual character and handcrafted detail.
The blade is heat treated to approximately HRC 62+ hardness, providing a dependable balance of sharpness, strength, durability, and edge retention for hunting and outdoor use.
The 6.0-inch trailing point blade features an upswept profile with an extended cutting edge and fine tip, making it well suited for controlled slicing, hunting, field work, and general outdoor utility.
Scales & Handle
The handle is crafted from highly figured exotic rosewood, selected for its rich natural color and distinctive grain.
The wood is carefully shaped and finished to provide a secure and comfortable grip while complementing the full-tang construction.
A brass rivet adds a traditional finishing detail, while the hand-carved spine gives the knife additional handcrafted character.
Natural variations in the rosewood grain ensure that every handle has its own individual appearance.
